the wiel; raiser is sufficient to cause the' distributer to be rotated by its frictional contact with the upper edge of the Wick to bring the shoulders b beneath the lower edges of the locking bar 8 and as soon as these shoulders b Contact with the locking bar as in Fig. 2, further upward movement of the distributer is impossible.

The parts are shown in locked position in Fig. Q. Vhen the Wick and distributer are again lowered the parts are automatically returned to the position shown in Fig. 1 at which time the distributor may be readily lifted out by hand.

live encircle the wick with a Wick raising sleeve 10, which is provided with inclined rows of perforations 10, with which perforations the teeth of the wick raising 'wheels or gears 11 engage and gire a slight turning action as the sleeve is raised.

What we claim is l. ln con'ibination, a Wick tube and Wick, a locking ban an air distributor freely sup- .motion thereto, and means wholly controlled by the rotary motion of the Wick for lock- ,ing the distributer against removal, substantially as described 2. In combination., a wick tube having a central draft space, a Wick, an air distributer removably seated in said space, a locking bar extending transversely' of the draft space, said distributer having a plurality of diainetrically opposed pairs of re cesses, each recess haring one Wall inade rertical and the other Wall provided with a locking shoulder, the upper edge of which is inclined toward the vertical Wall, converging guide edges for insuring entry of the locking bar into said recesses and means for rotating said distributer as the Wick is raised, substantially as described.
